One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Couchsurfing in Japan and meeting many amazing people.

In 2012, I met several people from Austria while I was in Kyoto, Japan. The next year, I traveled to Vienna to Couchsurf with them! Travel is the best way to meet many life long friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I work in academia and I encounter people who speak English as a second language every day. I am patient and I would be happy to help a non-native speaker practice English.
